The Wilkinsons are one of the most amazing success stories in contemporary
country music. Virtually unknown two year ago, the family trio has
received more nominations, awards and honors in two years, than
most artists garner in a lifetime. In 1999 alone, they were nominated
for everything from CMA's Horizon Award and Vocal Group of the Year,
to the Academy of Country Music Awards' nomination for Single of
The Year, and Top Vocal Duo or Group - well over 20 nominations!
The threesome took home a remarkable five Canadian Country Music
Awards (Single of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year,
Group or Duo of the Year, and the Wrangler Rising Star Award) and
four Big Country Awards (Best Vocal Group/Duo of the Year, Single
of the Year, Video of the Year and Album of the Year).
Now with their second album, Here and Now, they're here
to turn up the excitement and raise the bar on their already stunning
career.
From the opening chords of Here and Now, you know you're in for
something different. The Wilkinsons are doing things their way.
The family group, known for their sweet harmonies and fresh-scrubbed
image, has grown up.
